One of the greatest. Saw him many times...
 
A little behind here...

1. I usually spin albums Side 1, then Side 2. Occasionally "rinse and repeat" and very occasionally Side 1, Side 1, Side 2, Side 2 if it's super good.
2. I'm not dogmatic about LP vs. CD. I have lots of both and enjoy both very much.
3. Never really been a Marantz fan (sorry), but I do loves me some blue lights/meters (of a different flavor). :D
4. I also thought about being a radio announcer "DJ" and if Billy gets a 25w FM transmitter (!) he'll be getting calls from the FCC immediately!

There, all caught up!

Whew! That was well done.
 
The fact that Buddy Rich did anything “small” strikes me as ironic considering his persona in later “Tonight Show” appearances

I have to admit that those Buddy Rich Tonight Show appearances turned me off to the point that I avoid Rich recordings (don't own any). Just personal taste, and he was a great drummer, but the TV segments came across as loud and bombastic IMO.
